Wolves Wild

An orchid growing in a meadow very near the car park of the Saltwells Nature Reserve, Quarry Bank.

Yarrow with its flowers just beginning to open. This one was growing on the edge of the canal bank.

Very tall umbellifer (not a giant hogweed) so I was able to get a picture looking up to the flower with the sky beyond.

A bunch of u-shaped wings with a pair of swellings in the middle forming on a sycamore in mid-summer.

Moorhen swimming on the canal at Castlecroft.

Bumblebee with an already well-filled pollen basket scrambles round, even turning upside down, collecting from a St John’s wort flower.
